• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

What did you do to your car today? Vol 2.0



it literally just got a gen 5 swap with n* lol it needs to be faster then it was or ill burn it to the ground lol track should be open soon enough.
 


I haven't stopped in here in awhile... still building a fortified Model A, tons of pics on blog in link if you are curious. My GTP is doing OK, the GT just sits under a tree at Dad's. The 69 GP has endured a decade of neglect from crappy pay and "the mandate" finally managed to snuff any hopes of having a hobby this year. Spring, summer, and fall are looking sad. Just a brief update and shout to GPF dudes. :)
 
Replaced my coolant elbows... Again. Metal ones this time. Replaced my 195k upper radiator hose while the coolant was low. Replaced my 1 year old Kumho v720 tires with some fresh Falken fk615s. Don't feel as sticky as the Kumhos but should hopefully last longer than a year
 
Hoping that my coolant issues are solved on the 00 GP. Time will tell. Still searching for a windshield for my 95 Bonne. Got a lead on one for $100.
 
Friday night, was running some errands, turn left at an intersection, heard a lout bang. WTF? Drove cautiously not knowing what just happened. Got home fine. Saturday I took the snow tires off, and when I did the left front, I found the problem.....

Just moved back to the ICT after 6 months in Las Vegas. That was loads of fun. While away my little brother was driving the GXP, and oh sh*t was it in rough shape. Did an oil change, replaced both valve cover gaskets, fixing an massive oil leak, there were oil and mystery stains all over the interior. Scrubbed that sh*t clean. Tons of other stuff to list but its all easy fixins.

Sounds like your brother could use a old fashioned ass whoopin for treating your car like that.. and he should clean it or he gets another ass whoopin!

I dropped cylinder #3 on the way to work.
Took no effort but I'm not sure I like the results..
Also set a couple EGR codes. I'm hoping they are related..

Working on a Pantera deer hit now, just off the Model A job to fix that quick as possible. Week before last, I had to skip lunche$. Bosses only pay you what and when they want to, and I have been friends with mine nearly a quarter century. Quitting is the only change a person can make and complainng only gets you closer to parting ways. Call me half price.

At home, fixed a window roller in the 69 yesterday. Worked on the kickdown switch last weekend. Been driving the GT at lunch some days during the last 2-3 weeks. Had a storm last week and the headliner and seat got soaked. GTP is at about 272K and not showing signs of weakness.
